Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Not wanting to start a political discussion, but I find the US presidential electoral process genuinely fascinating. It's like a strategy game. I've been glued to the statistics since tuesday. If I wasn't so personally invested in the election I'd prolly be enjoying it immensely.

@Zuljaras that looks fantastic. You could sell that. How long did it take you?

@Losermagnet around 4 hours for the sculpting as I had to wait 3 times for about 15 minutes (for each bake at 130C ) and for the painting on the next day it was total of 1 hour and a half.

Nevada bruhs rn:

@Zuljaras is that the little hedgehog you saved in the video you posted ?

@Ninfan Yes that is Sonic the fatass!

@Zuljaras So cute 🤩

@Zuljaras that's fantastic. I paint miniatures and it takes me an embarrassingly long amount of time to paint something smaller than my thumb. And they don't even look good afterwords!

@HotGoomba___Rebrand Right!? There are quite a few posts I've seen about Nevada's um....pace. My favorite was one implicating they enlisted the help of the Sesame Street Count.

Finally found a shiny in the dynamax adventures, and it couldn’t be a better one

Thinking about getting a new power bank. I have a 3400mAh Sony one I got years ago, and its good for recharging older devices with smaller batteries like the o3DS (1300mAh).
For most devices I have it's too small. Also there's no fast charging.

I'd recommend a minimum of 10000mAh for your next one

The fact that I read this to a tune in my head testifies how old I am.

@Tyranexx Don't worry, plenty of younger people watch(ed) blue's clues!

@HotGoomba___Rebrand Lol I really liked the show at one point in time, though I stopped watching/got bored of it just before the Joe transition.

I played this game in the morning.

I found some Indonesian names despite it modified a little bit looks like foreign words such as Klinci (Kelinci in actual Indonesia word = Rabbit), Quintal (Kuintal in actual Indonesia word = 100 kg)

I've started playing through Secret of Mana for the first time through Collection of Mana on the Switch; I fired it up for a few minutes once on the SNES Classic, but only to test the waters. For the most part I'm enjoying it so far, though it has taken me a bit to get used to how the in-game menus work; it took awhile for me to figure out how to equip new gear.

Any tips? Tricks? Ways to preserve my sanity? I currently have the Hero and the Girl you can name in my party and am on my way to the Witch's Forest or whatever it's called. Apparently she's zombified some citizens of Pandora.

@Tyranexx
I have the PS4 version of Secret of Mana.
I prefer 3D graphic remake over than 2D style but the funny part was they talked like ventriloquist (talking with showing the teeth / mouth closed). 🤣
I still haven't continued the game yet, testing the water.

Btw, have you ever know PS4 game above (look at my PS4 game post above) ?

Ah cool I found a shiny cubone in pokemon go. It had been a long while since my last full-odds shiny.

It looks cute in dinosaur green.

@Eel Congrats! Cubone has a nice shiny form. Shiny Marowak also looks pretty cool IMO. I found one a couple of months ago at full odds as well. Hopefully yours has better stats than mine. XD

@Anti-Matter You must be talking about the 3D remake. I've heard a few things about that. Some people seem to like it, while others (mostly fans of the original SNES game) absolutely did not like the changes in the remake. If you ever go back to it, let me know how it goes! I don't mind 3D graphics if they're done well, but I'm also a fan of 16-bit pixel art.

As for Valthirian Arc: Hero School Story, nope, I've never heard of that game. A quick internet search shows that it's available on the Switch.

@Tyranexx Secret of Mana's remake on PS4 is ok. It's not really a shining example of a remake done right, and I think the flat art direction does the game's environments a disservice, as well as the soundtrack being generally hit or miss, but it's serviceable.

@Tyranexx it has perfect speed and meh everything else. As usual with shinies.
